“My gay life is like a video game. I have to travel very far and battle with evil monsters to rescue a princess. Sometimes I save the wrong princess and sometimes the princess just isn’t there, so I push pause and take a rest. I know for as long as I live, I will have to keep on fighting. Being gay and a nerd, I, unfortunately, don’t understand about fashion, I don’t really know how to dress so I wear tank-tops at home and t-shirts with cartoon characters at work. I enjoy being alone because handsome men always make me nervous. (unless he is naked… lol) I get up early. I work hard and play video games even harder. In a way, I like to feel in charge of my life and be able to choose the kind of person I want to be. I really love my simple life.”
